    摘要: There is provided a technique for avoiding test-time IR drops which occur when the frequency that adjacent FFs in a scan chain have different logical values increases. An expected value derivation module derives the expected value of each FF by calculating probability propagation or performing logic simulation. A grouping module groups each FF subject to a test into a number of groups by referring to the obtained expected value. A scan chain configuration module pairs two groups whose logical-value-1 intake frequencies are opposite to each other, performs logic reversal on one group, and configures one scan chain.

    摘要: A semiconductor device is designed to facilitate analyzing a position and a cause of the failure of an integrated circuit adopting a polyphase clock. To this end, the semiconductor device is provided with an error detecting unit that detects that a problem of the operation occurs in the integrated circuit, a clock state holding unit that holds the information of phases in a predetermined term of a two- or more-phase clock and an output unit that outputs the information of the phases in the predetermined term of the two- or more-phase clock when the error detecting unit detects that the problem of the operation occurs in the integrated circuit.

    摘要: A scan chain group structure in which a group of scan chains formed for each clock tree system in an LSI is subjected to a reconnection process so that the scan chain group is not present across a plurality of clock distribution regions obtained by dividing the clock-supplied region of the clock tree of one system and that the connection distance thereof in the distribution region becomes short, a test clock input mechanism in which test clocks to be input to the distribution regions are independent sub-clock phases, and an on/off mechanism of the clocks to be input to the distribution regions are realized. Further, the scan-in/out and scan test performed at the same time are limited in one region or between single regions, and tests in all regions and between all regions are carried out by a plurality of times of test steps.
